Alhamdulillah. I have listened a few lectures of Mufti Ismail Ibn Musa Monk. His way of lecturing is not only unique but also conveys the core principle of Islam. He is always intending to make every listener to think and ponder the prime aqeeda of Islam. It makes us to keep our prime objective always at the back of our mind meaning how can one ensure a berth in the heavenly abode.

Accidently, i turned on my TV, and I couldnt stop litening to Sheikh Menk the next day on my way to work my fiance called me on my cell phone and was asking? did you hear the preacher yesterday at dawn? I answered in the affirmative, then she said, then what did he talked about and I recalled the thrust of his message, then she said to me I loved this man. Allah has given him the power of speach and the power to be listened to, may the good Lord bless him and his parents, fairly opned minded man of God, he is really a gift to the muslim world

I was working on my PC in the night and one of his teachings was being played on the Television. I couldn’t but listen to everything he said. Though I am a Christian, the message really inspired me I would love to hear more… He is indeed a blessing to this generation…
